Why would officers approach the window like that if they believed someone in the car might have committed armed robbery? It makes no sense.
Usually they would stop the car and order them out , hands up , and have the driver and passenger walk backwards toward them. They would not approach the vehicle and go straight up to the window and ask for license and registration and then pull a gun.
